This is the true story of an English woman who moved to Egypt in circa 1850, on the premise of her health, and her maid. The two women became involved with the local community, in particular the men. It is written with very little reference to time and place---you'd hardly know you were in 19th C. Egypt. I found myself longing for greater insight and description.
However, because it is a true and unique story, you must read it.
